You're right. OP called it a manhole, so I assumed. But looking at the size compared to the foot, it's too small to be a manhole cover.
It's probably a hand hole for accessing a pipe or cable junction, likely smaller because it's where business or homes hook in. I work for an ISP, and most of ours are about this size

Might be a valve or fire hydrant underneath
It's next to a drainpipe...
